Over the past 20 years, I have had the privileged to speak at many events. From 20 adults in a small bible study group to hundreds of teens to thousands of banquet attendees. Speaking to groups about God, His restoration of my own life, and His plan for yours is my joy and honor. I love to share with teenagers and parents how God can call us to walk above the waves of adolescence without fear of drowning in the culture around us. I love to speak with women about how God has called them to rise up and walk in their calling. I would be honored to be a part of your next event! Contact my assistant, Ana, for more info!
My love,
Below are a few suggested topics–all can be tailored for your event schedule and modified for your event theme.
Women’s Events: A few of Candy’s favorite topics for Women’s Events include The Seven Jewish Feasts, Believing in the Miraculous, Focused & Fearless, and In a Moment. Candy loves speaking with women and challenging them to rise up to be everything God is calling them to be–as a mother, wife, friend, coworker, minister, and more. These topics can be tailored to fit your event theme and schedule.
Rescue: Candy presents portions of her book, Rescue: Raising Teens in a Drowning Culture, in a dynamic and engaging way to parents. Adaptable for any format (from a 45 minute presentation to an entire weekend seminar), topics include Technology, Sex & Society, Pornography, Homosexuality, Communication, Faith, Identity, and more.
Parenting: The Rescue topics from above can be broken down into one-time talks or tailored to fit your event schedule. Technology & Social Media is the most requested one-time talk for parents, covering such topics as apps, filters, trends, and pornography.
Purity Talk for Teens: Candy regularly speaks to teens and has a knack for getting their attention and trust right off the bat. Purity is beyond not having an intimate physical relationship before marriage. Purity is being pure in our thoughts, in our hearts, with our mouths, and with our bodies. Candy reminds teens although it isn’t easy, they CAN “guard their hearts above all else.”
Moms & Daughters: As a mother, you have the privilege of raising the person who will grow up to be one of your best friends. The bond between mothers and daughters is sacred, valuable, and lifelong. It must be fought for, protected, and grown. What a joy!
Moms & Sons: Being a mother to a “man-child” can be tricky business. Our sons need our support and our nurturing, but they don’t want to be coddled and babied. How do we hold his hand, yet come along side our husbands in raising him to be a mighty man of God and the leader of family? Oh, it can be done and there is much laughter and adventure along the way!
The Sex Talk for Parents: Take the God-given and powerful authority you have over your child’s life. Let’s discuss sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, abortion, degrading terminology, casual sex, and the list goes on and on. But facing this culture with your eyes wide open, armed with the Word of God, and by the power of His presence…you win!
Influencers for Teens: Christian teens have been called for such a time as this! Candy will remind you that God has equipped you to make an impact…to be an influencer! Find your passion in Christ, seek Him with your whole heart and He will thrill you!
Chosen for Pre-Teens: You have been summoned by a great King! You are an heir in His Kingdom. Candy focuses on the fruit of the Spirit and applies it in a practical way. What does kindness look like to a 10-year old when your best friend is being mean to you? How does you show strength and self-control when the bully is targeting you? Candy will remind pre-teens in an upbeat, fun way how to live in a manner worthy of being His son or daughter because…You are CHOSEN!
